Just wondering how royalties are paid when a book is sold. Is the author sent a cheque, paid direct into their pay-pal account, or by any other means? Also, how does it work if the author is writing under a pen-name?

Hi Romanie,
Essentially, once your balance meets £50 you can go to request a payment and we will do so via PayPal. It doesn’t matter if you are writing under a pen name as the payment is made through your PayPal email address that you registered with us so as long as your details are correct with them then it will get to you.
This question thread and this one give a little bit more information. Sometimes it takes a month or two for all sales to come through the various channels.

Best,
